How the West Was Won

You see! Dis a version, cah go put in nation, version
Say, version galore, Jah Jah know, say, dis a version galore
You do me dat!

Tell 'em when di west was won
Cah, lord, mi a go tell 'em when di west was won
Said, every star boy have them gun in a dem hand
Cah, whether outlaw or a Christian (Bimma!)

Cah, na go tell 'em when di west was won
Said, every star boy have them gun in a dem hand
Cah, whether outlaw or a Christian (Hey-a!)
Cah, mi say, Jesse James and John Wayne a fight down the lane
But Randolph Scott, it is a break on a watch
But, as I roll-o-o-o
As I roll-o-o-o-o-o-o (A weh mi say, hey!)

Cah, na go tell 'em when di west was won
Said, every star boy have them gun in a dem hand
Cah, whether outlaw or a Christian (Hey!)

Cah, mi say, Little Joe broke off him toe
Cah, lord, mi said, a Adam never know
Jah, let mi tell you, said, a Adam never know (A weh mi say!)
Cah, Ben Cartwright, him caught in a fight
Di one big horse, this a ride down the pass
Na go tell dem when di west was won
Cah, every star boy have them gun in a dem hand
Cah, whether outlaw or a Christian (Bimma!)
Say that, di man John Wayne, him big like a crane
Cah, when him really (?) it no go in a no vein
Him make blood run like a pouring rain

Mi a go tell 'em when di west was won
Say, every star boy have them gun (Hear me star, hear me!)

Say dat, mi lay down in a mi bed, tell mi, what did I see
Cah, four gunman, mi say, standing over mi
Ongle Jah Jah could a help mi; Ongle Jah Jah could a help mi
(A weh mi say!)

Mi a go tell them when di west was won
Cah, every cowboy have them gun in a dem hand
Cah, whether outlaw or a Christian (Hey-a!)

Cah, mi say, Jesse James and John Wayne a fight down the lane
But Randolph Scott, it is a break on a watch
But, as I roll-o-o-o
As I roll-o-o-o-o-o-o
Say, say, say, you fi (Scatting)
(Cah, do mi dat, a weh mi say!)

Cah, mi a gon' tell them when di west was won
Cah, every star boy have them gun in a dem hand
Cah, whether outlaw or a Christian
